    In that case you have lots of good karma ready to spend on wrecking fools or opening crates to find new unusuals.

    I still would like to own an Australium sniper rifle one day. But that's perhaps long in the future.

    it's delightful

    I finally made a mapping tutorial, on my favorite subject!

    CLIPPING!

    Everything's still pretty rough but I'm starting to "feel" the theme.

    I do think you should switch from the dusty dirty upward theme to something more lush though. I feel like it'd make more sense in a "biodome" type bubble thing.

    Eh, TF2 has never been a particularly utopian vision. I mean the maps are - as an important plot point no less - primarily wastelands, either industrial or natural. I do think that the grey rd_ass rocks might do you better than the orange.

    Oh hey a worse Professional Killstreak kit: Vita-saw. My luck has been decent as far as number of drops but just the wrong names.

    Sell them on the marketplace maybe? They probably won't go for as much as the Professional Killstreaks you want, but they'll make buying the ones you do not as bad. Or probably payroll getting specialized ones for a whole loadout.

    Also obviously xzzy should beat Valve to the punch and use the asteroid textures and skybox.

    I mean the maps already named Crater.

    I thought about it, but it'd be too much grey. As it is it's pretty monochromatic, I'm still trying to come up with a way to get it to look retro future without using pure grey. I even tried reflective surfaces at some point. It'll be interesting to see what Valve does with rd_asteroid because they're generally really good about picking hues.

    The red comes from mars, as the current idea is it's a base inside a biodome on mars. It's definitely too orange, I just haven't gone back and fixed it yet.

    Some green (or a lot, a skybox farm might even work) will definitely help, I'm thinking a prop that's some kind of hydroponics garden.

    I have the Soda Popper up there, but it is not worth it to use the parts that the Vita-Saw professional fabricator wants.

    Oh right, you have to build them. I've only done two man-ups ever, and that's only because the -ango's invited me.

    The first reaction to the new maps from the mapping community was if we could collectively detail them faster than Valve.

    I actually had this idea as the spring 72 hour contest ended. Like a week later Valve put that concept art of the space map up on teamfortress.com.

    They must have bugged my computer and were waiting for me to come up with the next great idea.

    That's actually awesome and now I need to think if it's something I can shoehorn into the theme.

    I think it'd be really neat if, once Valve settled on a final layout for rd_asteroid (and cactus canyon I guess) they had some kind of "detail the map" contest.

    Yes but the last detailing contest gave us cp_manor_event and cp_mountainlab, which are a couple of prop spam atrocities when it comes to detailing. Stoneyridge on its worst day didn't have half the props that those maps do.

    you are allowed to like poorly optimized maps, they're still poorly optimized though.

    mountainlab would actually work for prop hunt if you made zero changes to the map.

    I guess maybe disable playerclips because a lot of it is blocked off from the play area.
